Draft Grade — Cowboys
Overall D
ValueA- NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Cowboys robbed the room for Moore. Final grade: D.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Dante Moore tumbling to the Cowboys in the Round 7 slot is a gift they did not have to think twice about. The math is unkind, and the D follows.

The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. Wisner has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. The Thieneman pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at interior defensive lineman.

They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 David Bailey
They paid sticker price for David Bailey in slot 15, and that is fine. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick28 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In pick No. 28 they get a green-dot type in the middle, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick56 Rnd2 Jermod McCoy
They robbed the room for Jermod McCoy here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick87 Rnd3 Mansoor Delane
Mansoor Delane at No. 87 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick96 Rnd3 Earl Little Jr.
Earl Little Jr. in the Round 3 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick107 Rnd4 Dillon Thieneman
A surprising call. With interior defensive lineman still to address, they spent Round 4, Pick 7 on Dillon Thieneman, a safety they were not short of.
Pick115 Rnd4 A.J. Haulcy
A curious use of pick 115. Interior defensive lineman needed the pick; a safety in A.J. Haulcy did not.
Pick131 Rnd4 CJ Allen
They barely believed it either: CJ Allen still on the board at the 131st overall pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick155 Rnd5 Kaytron Allen
Circle this one: Kaytron Allen at Round 5, Pick 15 is a fall that decides a draft. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick163 Rnd5 Jordyn Tyson
Somehow Jordyn Tyson was still sitting there in pick 163, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick178 Rnd5 Kenyon Sadiq
Steal is underselling it; Kenyon Sadiq at the 178th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick179 Rnd5 Spencer Fano
You do not let an offensive lineman like Spencer Fano reach pick No. 179 and blink. They did not. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick187 Rnd6 Quintrevion Wisner
This one needs a full-page explanation: Quintrevion Wisner in slot 187, miles early. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick216 Rnd7 Dante Moore
Dante Moore in the Round 7 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick217 Rnd7 Jake Slaughter
Jake Slaughter at the 217th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick229 Rnd7 Chase Bisontis
The board fumbled Chase Bisontis all the way to No. 229, and they scooped it up. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
